Gator Cases has developed new brass instrument bell covers and face masks that conform to recommendations made in the National Federation of State High Schools’ performing arts aerosol study.
In a press release, Gator said its “instrument bell covers with a pocket for a replaceable MERV 13 filter (included) are made from a breathable, non-woven polypropylene fabric with little to no back pressure or acoustic loss during performance. The fabric and the filter are expected to greatly reduce the spread of aerosols. The bell covers are available in multiple sizes ranging from 4-32 inches in diameter to fit various instruments. All the covers feature an elastic closure and cord lock to properly secure them over the bell openings of wind instruments and do not cause any backpressure or acoustic loss during performance. The GBELL Cover Series will fit a wide variety of wind and brass instruments from clarinets to large tubas and range in size between 2 and 32-inches.”
“The instrument face masks are specially designed with a front flap opening for easy playing while staying safe and are available in youth and adult sizes,” the company said.
